Here is my unknown -- I either have a lot of them, or he is a ham for the camera. I was wondering the name, but also if it is good or bad.

Thx,
Suzy

They are good guys - I'm seeing a lot of them too. There was a thread about a week ago, it looks just like your fly:

Claypa,

Thanks for the quick ID - you sure know a lot about these bug-things. Is it, or was it, part of your job or formal education?

Suzy

Yeah, I guess yours is cuter than Lono's... lol...
No, I'm just a victim of Catholic school education. They had an incredible biology program at my H.S. And I've done a lot of camping, hiking, and canoeing and working outdoors, so I always was kind of in touch with critters of all kinds.
